Les terroirs viticoles ont une histoire

Hydrogen sulfide and methanethiol are recognised as two of the most significant contributors to reductive off-flavours in wine.

Un grand nombre d’études ont été consacrées à l’évaluation quantitative des effets de climat sur la qualité des vignes, dans différents contextes climatiques. Généralement, la vocation viticole d’un terroire peut être étudiée par des approches mono ou multidisciplinaires.

The ongoing climate change results in increasing mean air temperature, which is manifested by weather extremes or sudden changes between drought and local heavy rainfalls. These changing conditions are especially challenging for the established grapevine varieties growing under cool climate conditions due to an increased biotic infection pressure. Thus, the scope of most grapevine breeding programs is the selection of mildew fungus-resistant and climatic adapted grapevines with balanced, healthy yield and outstanding wine quality. Since no resistances or candidate genes have yet been described for Botrytis bunch rot (BBR), physical-mechanical traits like berry size and thick, impermeable berry cuticles phenotyped with high-throughput sensors represent novel effective parameters to predict BBR.

During the year 2009 we have studied the phenology and grape composition of Mencía cultivar in seven different situations (orientation and altitude) for Amandi subzone
